Indicating the Salam with the Left Hand

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner asks: What is the ruling on indicating the salam with the left hand while moving the lips? And is it necessary to give the salam and indicate it with the right hand?

Answer:
Yes, the salam is given with the right hand and not with the left hand, because the right hand is presented for good things, and the salam is among the good things. The left hand is presented for removing harm and what is of the same nature. Yes.
